Leigh (Kristen Bell) is almost 30 and living a seemingly perfect life in New York. But when her career and love life both come crashing down, she flees to her suburban hometown and regresses right back into teenage life - behaviour. She moves into her old room with her parents, hangs around with friends who never left town and reclaims her high school job as a condo-complex lifeguard. But as Leigh enjoys shirking off adult life and responsibilities and enters into an illicit affair, she begins a chain reaction that affects those closest to her. With an all-star cast that also includes Martin Starr and Amy Madigan, it's a journey that's both hilarious and heartfelt. (Pinnacle Films)

English But yeah. For how it's presented quite civil, non-pathetic, and for Kristen Bell's excellent performance, it deserves at least an average rating. It's just a shame that it's so dull, sometimes terribly empty, and actually even boring. There is some big event, but suddenly you feel like it's actually quite ordinary. Thanks to this, you can easily realize that death is simply a part of life. It's not an ordinary event in our lives, but it simply belongs there indelibly. Quite depressing. Calling this film a comedy is really foolish. ()
